Explain the difference between direct perception checking and indirect perception checking. Think about your own relationships, and provide a detailed example of each type which you have experienced or observed.
What will be an ideal response?
- Indirect perception checking involves seeking additional information through passive perception, such as observing and listening, either to confirm or to refute your interpretations.
* For example, if you suspect someone is angry at you but is not admitting it, you could look for more cues in his or her tone of voice, eye contact, and body movements to confirm your suspicion.
- Direct perception checking involves asking straight out whether your interpretation of what you perceive is correct.
* For example, if your friend's voice sounds weary and her posture is sagging, you may assume that she is depressed or sad. If you ask, "I get the feeling from your tone of voice and the way you're acting that you are down and depressed; what's wrong?" Your friend can either provide another interpretation or expand on your interpretation.
- Student examples will vary.
